Corporate Social Responsibility report Information about the report

Worldline includes 3 rd party fugitive refrigerant leaks, which are converted into CO 2 equivalent values. [GRI 305-3_D] For the GHG emission intensity ratio, the denominator for revenues is the complete organization, however, reporting is restricted to the baseline scope measured in 2012. Within that scope, the revenue is corresponding to the turnover generated by all countries within the baseline (all Service Lines) during the year (reporting period: January 1-December 31) under analysis. [GRI 305-4_B] For the GHG emission intensity ratio, the denominator for employees is the total headcounts registered at the end of the financial year for all countries within the baseline as on December 31. [GRI 305-4_B] Worldline is not producing any biogenic CO 2 emissions. [GRI 305-1_C, GRI 305-3_C] Detailed information related to [GRI 305-5] The reductions in GHG emissions occurred in direct (Scope 1), energy indirect (Scope 2), other indirect (Scope 3) emissions. [GRI 305-5_E] Detailed information related to [GRI 305-6] In order to calculate the Global Warming Potential, Worldline has identified the emission of substances to the atmosphere through fugitive refrigerant gas leakage from cooling systems, for example R22, R404a, R407 and R410a. Additionally, these gases are mainly reported for the DCs. [GRI 305-6_B] The conversion table used is based on the DEFRA table which provides refrigerant gas GWP tables. The tables are available at http://www.ukconversionfactorscarbonsmart.co.uk/. [GRI 305-6_D] Detailed information related to [GRI 102-9] Information related to subcontracting: The reported value in Section D.4.2.1.6 Responsible subcontracting is the number of external onshore subcontractors (headcount) present within Worldline on December 31, 2017. Detailed information related toHumanResources KPIs All Human Resources indicators derived from the HR Information System (GRI 401-1, GRI 401-2, GRI 401-3, GRI 404-1, GRI 404-2, GRI 404-3, GRI 405-1, GRI 405-2, GRI 202-1, GRI 202-2, and AO6) are based on an extraction made on January 2018. Due to late and retroactive entries on staff movements into the HR Information System, the actual situation as of December 31 is different from the one presented through the HR dedicated indicators. This difference however remains limited: it is approximately 1% of the total workforce at the end of the period. Equens Worldline, a legal entity acquired by Worldline in 2016, has been taken into account in the official staff.

The reduction is calculated as follows: For data centers, where multiple small activities take place, savings are calculated through PUE reductions measured in conjunction with site energy consumption. For offices, individual initiatives are justified based upon energy savings (cost savings), and are implemented based upon their merits. Those that are implemented are recorded and consolidated for this value. Data Centre and Office totals are then combined. [GRI 302-4_D] Detailed information related to [GRI 302-5 KPI] The PUE is a standard calculation: total kWh consumed by the entire site infrastructure divided by the kWh consumed by the IT infrastructure. The PUE, a measure defined by the Green Grid, is the industry standard indicator used to measure and monitor the energy efficiency of a datacenter. [GRI 302-5_C] The base year is the reporting period (January 1 to December 31). Considering the external growth of the Company, the geographical scope can progressively change to include additional countries. [GRI 302-5_B] The PUE is a standard calculation: total kWh consumed by the entire site infrastructure divided by the kWh consumed by the IT infrastructure. The PUE, a measure defined by the Green Grid, is the industry standard indicator used to measure and monitor the energy efficiency of a Data Center. Detailed information related to [GRI 305-1], [GRI 305-2], [GRI 305-3] and [GRI 305-4 KPIs] The base year is the reporting period (January 1 to December 31). Considering the external growth of the Company, the geographical scope can progressively change to include additional countries. [GRI 305-1_D] Worldline is applying the GHG protocol methodology for all GHG Scopes (Scopes 1, 2 and 3). The Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol, developed by World Resources Institute (WRI) and World business Council on Sustainable Development (WBCSD), sets the global standard for how to measure, manage, and report greenhouse gas emissions. [GRI 305-1_E, GRI 305-2_D, GRI 305-3_F, GRI 305-5_D, GRI 305-6_B, GRI 305-6_C] The gases included in GRI 305-2 a (CO 2 ) – Scope 2 are CO 2 . [GRI 305-2_B] The gases included in the calculation of Gases included in GRI 305-1 a (CO 2 ) – Scope 1, in GRI 305-7 a (CO 2 ) – Scope 3, and GRI 305-4_D, GRI 305-4_B, are CO 2 plus fugitive emissions of refrigerant gases converted to CO 2 equivalents. These gases include R134a, R22, R404a, R407c, R410a, R422d, R508b. [GRI 305-4_B, GRI 305-3_B, GRI 305-4_D, GRI 305-5_B] Where possible, Worldline uses conversion factors provided by the energy generating company. Where this is not available, the conversion table used is based on the DEFRA table which provides country average ratio. The table is available at http://www.ukconversionfactorscarbonsmart.co.uk/ . The chosen consolidation approach for emissions is based on an operational control. Site related data are collected at site level, then consolidated with travel data which is collected at country level. This is then consolidated at GBU level then at Global level. [GRI 305-1_G]
